9. Union has become a bad word
like liberal.

But when you ask someone specific questions, you find out they really are in favor of Unions, and are really Liberals.

Health Care, Collective Bargaining, being able to grieve discipline,having a say in the safety of the work place, choosing their own spokesperson to defend them, seniority, and on and on and on................

Same as Liberal Ideas. Health Care, social security, unemployment benefits, Medicare, public education, civil rights, and on and on and on...................

Some how, some where, somebody convinced working class Americans to vote and act against their own best interest. And pointing out their obvious mistake is a very frustrating ordeal.............
